Seeing Qing Yun frowning in deep thought and saying nothing, Lan Jue and the other three didn't say anything either.

After gathering her thoughts for a long time, Qingyun whispered to Zhuyue: "Send someone to take Qingfeng's body out of Prince Chun's Mansion, give it to her family for a proper burial, and give her some more money to support her family. In addition, tell Mingyue to let her continue. Stay in Prince Chun's Mansion, monitor Zhang Lianwu's every move, and arrange for people to protect her safety."

Although Qingfeng Mingyue harmed her in the previous life, they are used by her in this life, and she will naturally not treat them badly.

"Yes, Master!" Zhuyue took the order and left.

Lan Jue thought for a while and said: "Princess, Concubine Zhang and Prince Chun are a fake couple and have extraordinary martial arts skills. They are obviously planning something evil. We must take precautions early."

"You can arrange this matter." Qingyun nodded: "Also, the surveillance of the imperial concubine and the prime minister must not be relaxed."

When I was deeply in love with Sima Chun, I felt that he was good at everything. But once I lost my love, from the perspective of a bystander, I realized that Sima Chun was neither mentally nor strategically qualified to take on such a big task. How could he come up with the idea of ​​dancing with Zhang Lianwu? A plan to make a fake couple? Moreover, Zhang Lianwu was never willing to marry Sima Chun in her previous life, so what are the common interests that bind them together? Is this the idea of ​​the imperial concubine? Or the prime minister?

"By the way, I haven't seen Zhilan for so long since I came back. Is she still under house arrest in the palace by the imperial concubine?"

Lan Jue hesitated for a long time and said: "Back to the princess, Princess Yongle married Lin Tao, the prime minister's grandson, a month ago."

"What's going on?" Qingyun's raised eyebrows contained a clear expression: She had once told her father, Emperor Ming, that Zhi Lan's marriage was decided by Zhi Lan herself, so how could it happen?

"We don't know what happened. Princess Yongle suddenly asked to see the emperor that day and said that she wanted to marry Lin Tao. The emperor did not agree. However, Princess Yongle was extremely resolute and even expressed her determination by dying. The emperor had no choice but to agree. Afterwards, we I also asked Princess Yongle the reason, but Princess Yongle said nothing."

"Why didn't you notify me?"

"Princess Yongle doesn't allow us to tell the princess, say, say..."

"say what?"

"Say, if we tell the princess, Princess Yongle will commit suicide!" Lan Jue knelt heavily on the ground: "We are incompetent, please punish the princess!"

Waving to Lan Jue to get up, Qingyun looked at the scenery outside the window, feeling pity and self-blame in her heart: Zhilan, why are you so stupid? Since I promised you to let her live, I will do it, and that Lin Tao is not a good man, you Why sacrifice a lifetime of happiness?

"Princess, the Emperor is almost at the palace gate..." Nanny Shen came in to report.

Gathering up her complicated emotions, Qingyun immediately stood up and took Lu Ba, Lan Jue, and Mu Xue out to meet him.

Seeing Emperor Huiwen entering the palace, everyone was about to salute. Mu Xue had already galloped to Emperor Huiwen, stood up, laid her front paws on his chest, and sniffed close to his nose. Qingyun was about to scold him. , but Muxue put down her front paws and returned to Qingyun, with doubts in her eyes.

When Qingyun was puzzled, he heard Emperor Huiwen ask: "Jiu'er, this is..." Then he said truthfully: "Father, this is Muxue, the Fengyin Mountain I came from in Nanyang County Come back, father, don't worry, Muxue won't hurt anyone easily."

"Fengyin Mountain?"

"Yes." Seeing that Emperor Huiwen and Leng Yi both had surprised and delighted looks in their eyes, Qingyun was filled with doubts: "Father and Uncle Leng know about Feng Yin Mountain?"

The two looked at each other, and Emperor Huiwen said with a smile: "We once heard your father mention that when your parents were traveling in Fengyin Mountain, they encountered a dying snow wolf that was about to give birth. Your mother was kind and cut open the snow wolf. The wolf cub was taken out of the wolf's belly, but the wolf cub was too weak and poisoned. Your parents fed the wolf cub with blood and various precious medicinal materials for three months, and the wolf cub survived. Later, your parents After leaving, the wolf cub stayed in Feng Yin Mountain. I think Mu Xue must be that wolf cub."

Qingyun suddenly realized: "No wonder Mu Xue surrendered to me after tasting my blood. That's why."

Gently stroking Muxue's hair, Qingyun looked at Muxue: No wonder you can understand what I said, it turns out we are connected by blood! And Muxue rubbed Qingyun's hand intimately, feeling extremely comfortable.

"With Muxue protecting you, we can rest assured." Looking at his beloved daughter whose complexion had returned to its original state, Emperor Huiwen felt very relieved: "It's getting late, we should go to the family banquet."

"Okay." Holding Emperor Huiwen's arm, everyone came to the Imperial Garden.

The moonlight is like gauze, the floating clouds are curling, a bright moon hangs diagonally in the night sky, and the stars are dotted. Together with the swaying palace lanterns around, the entire imperial garden is cast with a hazy beauty.

Emperor Huiwen didn't have many concubines and children. Apart from those who got married and died, there were less than thirty people.

Looking at Zhang Lianwu and Lin Yiwei who were sitting next to Sima Chun, Qingyun Qingli had a slight smile on her face. She picked up a white jade wine cup and said to Sima Chun: "I have not yet congratulated the eldest brother on marrying these two side ministers. Concubine, I would like to take this opportunity to send you my belated blessings, and wish that the eldest brother and the two concubines will grow old together and have a son soon!"

After speaking, drink it all in one gulp.

"Jiu'er..." Sima Chun's expression changed and he was eager to explain. Zhang Lianwu tugged on his sleeve at the right time. Sima Chun immediately swallowed the bitterness that came out of his mouth and raised his head with the wine and drank: " Thank you Jiuer for your blessing!" Then he sat in his seat and kept drinking.

Zhang Lianwu and Lin Yiwei responded with smiles.

Glancing at Zhang Lianwu with a decent smile on his face, Qingyun looked at Sima Chun and asked casually: "Brother, why don't you see Concubine Qing?" From the corner of her eye, she could see Zhang Lianwu's slightly changed expression. Looking back, he added: "Although as the concubine Qingshu cannot attend formal occasions, this is just a family banquet. Concubine Qingshu is the concubine given to the eldest brother by his father, so he should attend it. Why? Don’t you see anyone, are you feeling unwell?”

"Your Majesty..." Sima Chun's hand holding the wine glass paused momentarily, his lips moved but he didn't know how to answer.

"Back to the Ninth Princess." Zhang Lianwu stood up, with an unspeakable hesitation on her beautiful face: "The prince caught Concubine Qing on the spot having an affair with a guard. In order to avoid bringing shame to the reputation of the royal family, he secretly disposed of Concubine Qing. Prince I originally planned to report it to the Emperor Ming after the family dinner, but I was afraid of disturbing the mood of the Emperor Father and the Ninth Princess. I also asked the Emperor Father and the Ninth Princess to forgive the prince for concealing the truth."

As he spoke, he knelt on the ground with an uneasy look on his face.

Everyone despised and sarcastically said: Concubine Chun was the concubine given to Prince Chun by the emperor, but she actually had an affair with a guard, which was totally shameless.

Waving his hand to signal Zhang Lianwu to stand up, Qingyun sighed: "Since it was Concubine Qing who caused the filth and the eldest brother was only concerned about the reputation of the royal family, my father and I will naturally not blame the eldest brother, and this matter will be revealed. Once, no one is allowed to mention it again."

If she hadn't known the truth a long time ago, if she hadn't suspected Zhang Lianwu a long time ago, I'm afraid she would have believed Zhang Lianwu's words. Zhang Lianwu was really secretive and should not be underestimated.

"Thank you, father, for the ungrateful kindness of the nine princesses!" Sima Chun and the others knelt down to thank them.

"Okay, tonight's family banquet is for Jiu'er and Prince Rui to cleanse themselves from the dust. Forget about those messy things." As soon as Emperor Huiwen opened his mouth, everyone naturally did not dare to object. They all picked up their wine glasses and said in unison: " Congratulations to the Ninth Princess on Prince Rui’s safe return!”

The atmosphere was much more relaxed.

Seeing that Sima Yue, who was usually outspoken and talkative, only focused on drinking, and Sima Qi changed his usual playful smile and looked particularly quiet, Qingyun couldn't help but feel doubtful and turned to look at Sima Rui.

Seeing Qingyun's inquiring look, Sima Rui shook his head slightly to indicate that it was okay, then picked up a piece of steamed sturgeon and put it into Xu Kexin's bowl. His tone was surprisingly gentle: "The chef's skills are good, you can eat more."

Xu Kexin was stunned for a moment, then blushed with shyness on her face. Her uneasy mood suddenly disappeared. The prince still had her in his heart! But when she followed Sima Rui's gaze, she realized that Qingyun was looking at him with a smile. At their table, the shyness on their faces instantly froze, and their hearts filled with boundless bitterness and sorrow.

Was it her extravagant hope after all?

On the second day after the wedding, the prince went to the palace to serve tea and did not see the ninth princess. The prince became distraught. After learning that the ninth princess was leaving Beijing and that the prince could not accompany him, he actually stayed in the palace day and night without returning home. After that, he followed the ninth princess regardless. Now, Her tenderness and considerateness were obviously made for the Ninth Princess to see.

How much she wanted to ask the prince: How is she inferior to the Ninth Princess? Why does the prince refuse to look at her?

Could she only win the prince's heart and love by doing what the man in black said?

On one side, Xu Kexin's thoughts were spinning. On the other side, Cai Wanting was just about to eat the delicacies brought by Sima Xian. Suddenly, her stomach twitched. She threw away her silver chopsticks and retched to one side, her face a little pale.

"Wanting, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Sima Xian patted her back gently, with a look of worry and worry.

Cai Wanting couldn't stop retching and couldn't answer him at all.

Qing Yun hurriedly said to Mo Xuan beside her: "Chen Yu, go and see the Sixth Emperor's Wife."

Everyone also looked at Cai Wanting. Concubine Yu was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "Could Wanting be like this? Yes..."

"Yes? What is there?"

Mo Xuan quickly cleared everyone's doubts: "Princess Xian is more than twenty days pregnant."

The sudden good news shocked Sima Xian so much that he forgot to react. His mind went blank and everyone was stunned. Emperor Huiwen and Concubine Yu looked at each other and saw surprise and relief in each other's eyes, but they responded instantly. Godly Qingyun said happily: "In other words, Sixth Brother has become a father, I have become the Emperor's aunt, and Father and Concubine Yu have become the Emperor's grandfather and grandmother!"

A word came to wake up the stunned crowd: This is the emperor's first grandson, so you can imagine how valuable he is!

For a time, some people were happy and some were worried.

Especially Xu Kexin, looking at Sima Xian who was caring and caring around Cai Wanting, and Cai Wanting with a happy face, and then looking at Sima Rui with a cold expression next to her, she felt desolate in her heart.

Zhang Lianwu glanced at Xu Kexin, whose eyes were full of pity, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
